AGE ACQUIRES LICENSE FOR TEKTRONIX'S SERIAL XPRESS LOW BANDWIDTH
PERFORMANCE ENHANCEMENT SOFTWARE

SAN DIEGO, CA, August 23, 1993 -- AGE Logic, Inc. has been licensed to
market the Serial Xpress software from Tektronix, Inc. as an optional
add-on to its XoftWare PC and terminal X server product line. Serial
Xpress was specifically designed to optimize network performance and speed
over standard low bandwidth telephone lines, using a modem or direct
RS-232 serial connections.

"We intend to thoroughly evaluate the market advantages available to X
Window applications when Serial Xpress is incorporated," said Peter J.
Shaw, president and CEO of AGE. "This data compression software may
provide substantial improvements in speed and performance for certain X
Window applications linking X terminal and PC users at corporate and
remote sites over standard serial lines. After careful evaluation with
user benefits foremost in our minds, we will announce serial
implementations optimized for our customer base."

Tektronix's Serial Xpress communication software, developed for the
TekXpress X terminal family, is a high speed serial protocol. It was
designed to manage the increased bandwidth requirements of remote
connections to X Window System networks and hosts. Serial Xpress utilizes
data compression algorithms to provide serial communication at
approximately ten times the speed of Serial Line Internet Protocol (SLIP).
It also allows users to establish and run additional serial sessions
concurrently.

"We are pleased that a leading X server developer such as AGE has endorsed
our serial compression technology," said Stephen King, vice president of
marketing at Tektronix Network Displays Division. "With Serial Xpress, AGE
now has available one more solution to its product line. As users migrate
to low bandwidth X, the demand for high-performance X protocols
increases."

Tektronix's Network Displays Division (NWD) develops and markets a complete
line of X terminals, graphics terminals, and netstations. Tektronix, Inc.
is a leading manufacturer of electronic products and systems in the areas
of test and measurement, computer graphics and television systems. Sales
in fiscal 1992 totalled $1.3 billion worldwide. Tektronix NWD can be
contacted at P.O. Box 1000, Wilsonville, OR 97070.
